My gut feel is that fly Tom offered would be a superior fish catcher.
That other thing looks like something Fisher-Price turned out of a mold, although I did not spend a whole lot of time looking at it.
All the same, it (IMO) tends to be somewhat axiomatic in fly tying that attempting too much realism in fly design very often ends up causing a more unnatural look in the water.
There are, just for one example, a couple hundred virtually useless crayfish patterns that attest to this...
JMHO..
